I would play Moussa a lot tonight. Bulls big men space the floor a lot so trying to sit Mark or Nick in the paint all game is a bad strategy.

The tank is full throttle. We may not win 20 games.

I was thinking 15
Melo will opt out of March and April per usual.

I get we're tanking, but can we stop load managing our 22 year olds like they don't need the experience/on court chemistry/development this year?

Don't leave February out like that. Personally I'm not convinced he'll play more than once or twice in January. Too cold outside.

Salaun made LaMelo and Miller look bad. Dude sprained his ankle and was back quick. LaMelo and Miller could bump an elbow on a door and be lost for a month if not the season. They just don't want to play here.

Need to bring back Amari Bailey so you'd have The Malingering Brothers and Amari Bailey, a circus coming to a town not near you (because of soreness).

Malingering Brothers and Amari Bailey is more funny than it has any right to be. I've been skipping over a lot of your posts lately Robot Rock, but glad I caught that one. Maybe more yucks and less everything sucks?

Young kids don't want to play basketball smh.

These dudes should be balling putting the league on notice and recruiting players to come join them in Charlotte. How are we going to change the culture if this is the message we are sending...

I was all for change, but this new ownership and GM/HC philosophy has rubbed me the wrong way. All this tanking is going to look stupid if we don't end up with a top 5 pick.

Coworker of mine just posted on Facebook that her son used his Christmas money on tonight’s game but was a little disappointed that Lamelo isn’t playing. It’s not going unnoticed.
